Bridges & Boundaries: African Americans and American Jews by Jack Salzman, et al. How have African Americans and American Jews related to one another during the past century? Bridges and Boundaries examines the complex links between these two groups in light of each one's cultural identity and experiences of marginality and dislocation over time. Using historical, cultural, economic, political, visual, and even poetical perspectives, the text and virtual essays in this timely volume explore in detail the major issues and events in 20th century American history that shaped both the ethnic characters of African Americans and American Jews, as well as the misperceptions about their historical and contemporary relationships. Using a wide range of sources -- from slave narratives that incorporate the Exodus story to contemporary newspaper reports on alliances against racially motivated attacks -- the texts in this volume provide numerous opportunities to reflect on and respond to one of the most controversial, and this illuminating, issues confronting us today.
